WrestleMania XIX

Two points:

1. This event is not a tenant of the facility, and should not be listed as such.

2. The attendance figure cited is from a WWE press release. WWE has a history of inflating attendance figures (they still claim 90,000+ at the Pontiac Silverdome), and newspapers have an annoying habit of simply repeating what WWE claims in their press releases.

Since the pro wrestling cabal here has been rallied to threaten and intimidate anyone who dares to touch "their" articles, I'll be backing off for now, but others should be able to insert some sanity into this discussion. Stan Simmons (talk) 18:09, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

Of all the places I have seen which hosted the event, WrestleMania is listed in the tenant section. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean you are right. Sorry. –Turian (talk) 18:13, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

One-time events aren't tenants of a building. Sorry. Stan Simmons (talk) 19:24, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

WrestleMania is actually a full weeks worth of events. Which is similar to Super Bowls. –Turian (talk) 19:29, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

WP:PW agrees that one time events at venues should not be noted as "tenants" on infoboxes. However the complete removal of all wrestling related content from the articles you continue to revert is unwarranted. You're arguments over the notability of wrestling events isn't valid especially when the events themselves hold important revelance in the history of each venue (attendance records, gate records, etc.) This is an obvious bias against the subject and WP:NPOV/WP:POINT violations. ^{--UnquestionableTruth--} 19:39, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

(e/c x2):

1. I agree that one-time or even short-lived annual events do not qualify as "tenants", yet you conveniently neglected to delete the short-lived Seattle Bowl as a "tenant" (). That being said, these are certainly notable events that warrant mention in the article.
2. I'm sorry, but you can't dismiss reliable, secondary sources based on your presently unbacked claim that "WWE has a history of inflating attendance figures". —KuyaBriBri^Talk 19:31, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

Find a primary source that doesn't parrot a WWE press release, or the attendance figure remains a WWE claim, and subject to scrutiny. Stan Simmons (talk) 20:26, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

Naming rights

I've removed the dubious tag added by 2600:1:982C:AA0D:3075:A401:9FEB:F08A who commented,

Dubious content. Information in the source has not been verified by either party in question. Neither tmobile nor the mariners have confirmed this name change.

A statement from T-Mobile or the Mariners would be a first-person source, which we do not use for confirmation. The naming rights going to T-Mobile has a reliable source attached:

Brown, Maury (November 15, 2018). "New Naming Rights For Mariners' Safeco Field Going To T-Mobile". Forbes. Retrieved November 15, 2018.

Also, this doesn't meet any of the standards for disputed statement at Wikipedia:Accuracy dispute#Disputed statement. -- Pemilligan (talk) 18:25, 23 November 2018 (UTC)

Statues

For future reference, here are three links to stubs about statues, which have been redirected:

• Statue of Ken Griffey Jr. (link)
• Statue of Dave Niehaus (link)
• Statue of Edgar Martínez (link)

Proposed merge of The 'Pen into T-Mobile Park

Feature of the park with little reason to have a standalone article. The existing article on the ballpark is not long enough to warrant a split. SounderBruce 03:49, 5 April 2023 (UTC)

I’m all right with that; perhaps this could be done with some additional cleanup of the “Features” section, which has a lot of unsourced promotional content at the moment White 720 (talk) 05:02, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
